Heat hero Logs Direct has warming news for homeowners wishing to add something very different to both their winter celebrations and their daily routine this year, having introduced a wholly unique product to the UK – Wine Logs.
Wine Logs are literally that – dark maroon-red logs formed from grape seeds extracted during the processing of grapes for wine and grappa production. These seeds are cold-pressed, without the addition of any chemicals, to extract oils from them. This ensures a better combustion when the log is lit and a longer burn when used in an open or closed fire, or a woodburner or multi-fuel appliance.
A hole within the 100 per cent natural log allows air to circulate around it, again assisting combustion. The logs create a nice dancing flame and a sustained burn. Keeping the fire going is not a struggle and they generate a great amount of heat, having a calorific value of 5.11 kwh/kg and a moisture content of just over 10 per cent. They produce little ash and are clean to use.
There is also a lovely aroma of wine emanating from the logs the minute the 15kg box is opened and, as long as you store them in a fresh and dry place out of the sun, they can be your great new talking point whenever guests arrive.
Wine logs are an ecological alternative to carbon and were discovered by Logs Direct when it attended an exhibition in Verona as the guest of the Italian Embassy. If you too would like to appreciate what they can bring to the party, festive celebrations or January blues, call 01524 812476 to buy this exclusive product at a price of £9.99 for a box of 9 logs.
